On Saturday, March 25, Rome will be hosting the 60th Anniversary of the signing of the Treaties of Rome, and several demonstrations and sit-ins have been organized throughout the day in the city center. Many areas of the city, as well as monuments and museums, will be closed to the public, and public transportation will also be strongly affected. 

For this reason, in the interest of safety, both Guarini and Tiber campuses will remain closed, including the Library.

Regular opening hours will be resumed on Sunday, March 26. To view our complete schedule, please view the main Library website.
